Aldi air nailer?

[Cobbler]

Has anyone got a Aldi air nailer please, I was in Aldi & in the bargains there was one for £15. My son is intending to pine panel a summerhouse to make an office,so if suitable would be just the job. So my question is, do they take standard readily available nails in small sizes for paneling, or is it just the 2" ones stated on the package?

I've never used an air nailer or looked at one before, so know nothing about them at all, just think for not a lot of money it would save a huge amount of work. Your thoughts please?

From an air nailer virgin!

I have one in the shed, it takes standard 18g brads or staples in other sizes which I bought from Machine Mart to use with it. I've not used it for a long time but it was used for fencing and cladding and did a good enough job. It is not really a nailer, they are much more expensive.

Thanks for that, looks like a good bet if it is still there. I'll have a look Monday.

I used one to put up about twelve metres of overlap fencing two summers ago using 18g brads, it has lasted very well coming through the windy weather without any damage.
